Basics rate limits

We apply per-endpoint rate limits to protect the platform and ensure fair usage across all organizations.

When you exceed the rate limit, you’ll receive an HTTP 429 Too Many Requests response:

The retry_after field indicates the number of seconds you should wait before retrying.
